BILL NUMBER:  SB 914
  VETOED	DATE: 10/09/2011




To the Members of the California State Senate:

I am returning Senate Bill 914 without my signature.

This measure would overturn a California Supreme Court decision that
held that police officers can lawfully search the cell phones of
people who they arrest.

The courts are better suited to resolve the complex and case-specific
issues relating to constitutional search-and-seizures protections.

Sincerely,



Edmund G. Brown Jr.
